[Itaru: Government shutdown]
- We expect some announcement from lab in mid November.
- SDCC will be shut down also, no email service either.
-- We might need to transfer data to somewhere else in case that happens.

There are minutes attached to this event. Show them.

- 20:00 → 20:20
  
  INTT chip saturation issue 20m
  
  Speaker: Shan-Yu Chen (National Central University)

  [Shan-Yu: INTT chip saturation issue]
  - Number of hit 68 is in a given chip.
  - This is different issue from the event saturation issue.
  -- But it is nice to check chip activity on the event right after the event saturation happen.
  - Is the chip capable of processing 128 hits at the same time with the sPHENIX BCO frequency?
  -- It is hard to debug in the calibration mode because require modification of FPGA to be such frequency.
- 20:20 → 20:40
  
  Missing acceptance issue & BCO QA 20m
  
  Speaker: Jaein Hwang (Korea University)

  [Jaein: Missing acceptance issue & BCO QA]
  - Adding the statement in the decoder is slowing process?
  -- A little bit, but the processing time is much faster than the other system.
  - Information of the num of BCO sent from GTM to each Felix server is kept in the GL1 data
  -- Why does each Felix has the different number of BCOs from the GTM to the server?
  -- Because each server has different event size, although the combining process stop at the same file size limit.
  - A very tiny number of missing packet happens for all servers, but it is negligible and acceptable.
  - No need to push Raul/Martin to look into the issue. The offline fix is already good enough.
  - Compile the information about the issues into the wiki page.
